Skywind Gameplay Demo - Necromancer in Mawia

What better way to celebrate Morrowind's 21st anniversary than with a fresh Skywind gameplay video?
"Necromancer in Mawia" follows the player as they act as an agent of the Tribunal Temple in the ash-choked region of Molag Amur. The mission is straight out of Morrowind, and should feel familiar to players of the original game, while also showcasing re-imagined assets, creative level design ideas, and more immersive dialogue and scripted sequences.
Skywind is a huge undertaking with lofty quality standards, and every single person involved is a volunteer working in their spare time. The team has roles available for people of all skill sets and levels, so if you think you might be able to help, please visit tesrskywind.co... to sign up.
Videos like "Necromancer in Mawia” take a colossal amount of work and co-ordination to put together, but they also accelerate development as we scramble to get every aspect of the video implemented and polished. Still, some keen viewers might notice gaps - missing dialogue, floating objects, or placeholders from Skyrim. There's space for extra contributors in a number of different roles detailed on our website, and we're always keen to welcome more team members to speed us on our way.

As one of the developers who worked at Bethesda for many years (I made the Dragons for Skyrim, Deathclaws for Fallout etc), I am SO PLEASED to see this.

I for myself, i learned coding back in school (Turbo Pascal, omfg) but never used it in my work life, i wouldn't even know how to start and i don't have the time to learn all the stuff needed to use the creation kit.

@@Internet_Enjoyer Skyrim doesn't have global illumination. They're not trying to remaster the graphics of Skyrim with 4k textures and a new lighting system. They're making it fairly on-par with it, so people who can run Skyrim can run Skywind. Your other points are just kind of nitpicky. I can agree that the terrain and sky don't quite match, but the NPCs are obviously better than anything Bethesda has ever done, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

As great as Skyrim is, calling skyrim better besides it being an absolutely senseless comparison is just fanboying on another level. Sure, in a technical viewpoint, it's better. But it would be a bad joke if it wasn't... Storytelling wise, I'd say Morrowind is far superior in that regard. Skyrim's story and other bigger quests are mediocre at best. Not much that's worth mentioning. markers lead you to everything, no finding out anything by yourself, riddles in dungeons are 9/10 times solved at first sight, the 3 voice actors that they use for every second NPC are... well... sometimes okay, sometimes terrible... And don't get me started with bugs... Let's be honest, without mods, Skyrim would be just another game out there that's good but nothing special. Not the singleplayer game that thousands still play to this day. You can thank the massive modding community for keeping Skyrim alive. Sure, Morrowind also has mods but the console versions never had mod support and Morrowind's modding community was way smaller than Skyrim's and even modders make content that's 1000 times better than anything made by bethesda.

Always nice to get a glimpse at the progress you've been making!

[@mithrainvictus5777]

Such a beautiful landscape, UI and voice acting. You guys nailed it. Congrats and thank you for this.

[@Gilafax]

Congrats guys. This is obviously a labor of love and we thank you for it!!

[@gemgemjibabaloo]

The Skywind team is doing amazing work! Everything from the UI, VO, models and animations look extremely polished and it is obvious everyone is putting a lot of time and dedication into this project. I cannot wait to play it 😍

[@PC_Magikman]

Oh man this looks so good. Hits me with the nostalgia while simultaneously seeming fresh. I love the new designs of weapon and armor, the voice acting seems really good and most importantly, the return of all those different spells

[@Rokabur]

Hopefully this mod will have the gear having their spells and buffs to cast. Was disappointed in Oblivion and Skyrim where all armor just had passive buffs.

[@elliejohnson2786]

I love the door sounds, just like old morrowind! I'd love if that were ported to the chests, as well. The soundscapes of skyrim and morrowind are totally different, and for good reason.

[@mrZanZibar777]

I think the quality and consistency of the art direction is what impresses me most about Skywind. Lots of times total conversion mods will be either low quality or inconsistent in that department since you have a lot of cooks in the kitchen with their own ideas for how the game should look, but Skywind seems to have figured out how to get it done cohesively.

[@ragekage7790]

Im beyond excited for this congrats to everyone who's been working on this project! No matter how small the role you think you are, you are all amazing keep at it! Skywind will be my first visit to Morrowind I cant wait to see what you have accomplished!

[@nexsix2389]

Lost all interest when the greater bonewalker didn't completely drain your strength, but in all seriousness this looks absolutely amazing, and I would say that you've done Morrowind justice in capturing its ambience and general feel and I genuinely cannot wait for this to be completed.

[@JaeSM97]

The unlocking spell animation is so amazing, I'm now mad vanilla Skyrim didn't have anything like that.

[@Jzsolt007]

Indeed it looks more badass.

[@TechnoMinarchist]

Wish it twisted in the other direction though.

[@darkstar-mq3mb]

Daggerfall, Morrowind, and Oblivion all had unlock spells. I love Skyrim but they kind of dropped the ball when it came to spells. They removed way too many useful spells that were in previous games.

[@ayeyuh6920]

I'm mad vanilla Skyrim didn't have *_a lot_* of things Morrowind did.

[@jimjimson6208]

@@ayeyuh6920 And TES6 will have even less if it ever comes out lol, Bethesda has a long history of removing more and more mechanics with each release

This is sooo gooood! Been waiting and watching for progress around 6+ years! Still excited about new releases! You doing great job on a level of triple A project guys! Whole team are just awesome people and fans. From fans to fans❤

[@demantim]

Have just started replaying Morrowind and dang... it holds up. This incredible remake looks extremely inspiring!

[@SynysterProjects]

The compass looks fantastic! I mean, it ALL looks fantastic, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time y'all have showed off the compass! Vivec City is REALLY coming together nicely. Everything looks so great, huge progress with this update! Seriously can't wait for the official release!

[@Forsworcen]

I think that was Molag Mar? I remember doing a necromancer quest in that city…

[@SynysterProjects]

@@Forsworcen I'm almost positive it was Vivec, but you could be right.

Morrowind is my favorite game of all time. I just wanted to offer a very sincere thank you for this amazing work.

[@antananarivo484]

The detail on the bonewalkers... I'm absolutely blown away. I CANNOT wait to experience my favorite game of all time again.

[@topcatcoast2coast579]

Man i keep tuning back into the production of this.

[@sergeygladkikh8520]

This is incredible! Many doubt that Skywind will ever make to the release, but I believe in you guys, keep up your amazing work!

[@logicality77]

I know it's been a long road, and there is still quite a ways to go, but what you, the Skywind team, has managed to pull off is simply breathtaking. You didn't have to recreate so much of what was already in Skyrim to do this project, but it does appear to be paying off in getting much closer to Morrowind than you'd be able to do otherwise. Lovely work all around.

[@FuzedBox]

"A long road". Yeah, as in this project traces its roots all the way back to 2006. Skywind will never be publicly released; it's DNF-tier bait.

[@BoleDaPole]

Doubt Microsoft will let this be released to the public. Maybe they'll make a deal where Microsoft gets 80% of the profits or something

[@Demiurge13]

@@FuzedBox what's your problem?

[@FuzedBox]

@@Demiurge13 My problem is that this team is a bunch of smug elitists that keep this in perpetually closed alpha status. I didn't lie, nor did I exaggerate how long they've been at this. This started with Oblivion's engine, it's that old. If truth and realistic expectations are my "problem", then it's a good problem to have.

[@Demiurge13]

@@FuzedBox hey now no need to get in a tizzy, I was just asking a sincere question. Don't assume that everyone knows their history. Couldn't they just want to wait and release a finished product though? As much as I would love to have whatever is done released, I know that there would be people that complain it's incomplete.

[@LuisPereira-ms8mg]

The UI looks great, loved the animation of the spell used to open the chest.

[@B-Randall]

The waterwalking icon? *chef kiss*

[@rothaestus]

It's amazing to see what group of enthusiasts can accomplish. Seeing this and Skyblivion is something else all together - you can see how much team cares about the TES and how much into detail they want to go. Keep up the great work guys, can't wait to see both of projects in they final shape!

[@WolfheartFPS]

Unbelievably hyped for this

[@WhiteEagle8888]

Creativity, Passion, Tenacity and a genuine sense of LOVE oozes from every pore of this preview. I can't express how GRATEFUL I am for you guys paying attention to every meticulous detail, YOU truly do both Morrowind and Skyrim an honor with your wonderful work! I wish you all the best and looking forward to playing this masterpiece as soon as it is ready!!! Not only do you manage to stay true to the image of Morrowind but you also manage to catapult it into the 2020's by updating the entirety to modern standards while at the same time preserving everything that made this game great in the first place. In all honesty: Thank You All from the bottom of my heart!!!!

[@bonqwater]

If this doesn't become my all time favtgame I would've absolutely shocked. Morrowind is already in my top 5. Giving it a remake of this quality is going to be hard to beat. You are all doing amazing work. You should be very proud. The community commends your hard work and dedication. We appreciate you all very much for doing this we cant.

My jaw dropped watching this gameplay footage! I will tirelessly follow the updates for this masterpiece! Thank you!

[@Ian-nl9yd]

I love Molag Mar! I was partial to the isolated Vivec city canton, but you carried over that fortified vibe very well. As in the original, it feels like the whole town is in a tense, defensive posture against the molag amur.

[@tag10]

Simply fantastic. No other words. The atmosphere is perfect. Can’t wait to explore Vvardenfell

[@AlexStavrosCan]

You guys proving that today it can still possible to design atmospheric and creative games without being profit-angled and eliminating the creativity of the new games.. Today the game industry so sucked that we never get the games like Morrowind no more. But you guys as the team of Skywind proves that it is not impossible and it still can be done if intensions are still honest. I strongly wish your success and I hope that this will be only the beginning of your amazing journey together as an amazing team ! ❤

Morrowind is one of the greatest games of all time. Unlike any other TES game, and really unlike any other game ever made. It's so unique. If Skywind is ever realized, it will make me so happy I can't even describe it.

This looks fantastic. You know my father really loved Morrowind back in the day but it gave him terrible vertigo. He would play for an hour or so and then lay on the couch sick as a dog until he felt good enough to play again. He beat the whole game that way. He has since grown very fond of Skyrim and it doesn't give him vertigo, now that this is going to be coming he will be able to enjoy the game without the nausea. I think he will be over the moon. Thank you :)
